I guess Jonathan Taylor is joking or trolling here, one of the main
advantage of using Linux distributions for desktops is that every
application is automatically categorized where, on Windows, every
application is NOT categorized...

Start->Programs->Adobe->Photoshop v.x->Photoshop

VS 

Applications->Graphics->The Gimp Image Editor

Using Applications/Add&Remove shows the same, logical, categories as
well.

GNOME does the same; each application has it's purpose appended to it's
name : Firefow Web Browser, Pidgin Instant Messenger.
